Burgundy

Burgundy vineyards are well known for their history. Here, there are Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes for the red wine and Chardonnay and Aligote grapes for the white wine. The mention of appellation or plot (Clos) is very important, as on the same vineyard, different winemakers can produce a wines of different quality. Of course, the prestigious wines like premier crus and grand crus are the most desirable, but with 84 quality geographic areas which are full of wines to discover. After years of tasting and experience, we have selected the quintessential wines.

The En Orveaux Premier Cru of Vosne Romanee by Sylvain Cathiard is, like all their wines, 100% destemmed and undergoes malolactic fermentation. Ultimately, this is a highly accessable Burgundy with pleasant fruit character, racy acidity and lots of freshness. Needs a few more years in the bottle, but will be gorgeous for a decade or so after that!
